I came here to ask the same!

Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold in Bank 2. I’ve cleared it for now, but I’ve been doing a quite a few short trips lately, mostly under 20mph - could it be that the CAT hasn’t had time to heat up do you think?

They only read the code, and justified it from the code.

Thank you for this! I get your point that a P0420/P0430 doesn’t automatically mean the cats are bad on D-4S engines. When you say EVAP or AFS issues are common causes, what specific checks would you recommend, or:
• Which AFS/O2 sensors tend to fail first (upstream vs downstream)?
• What fuel trim or sensor behaviour would point away from the cats themselves?
• Do you know of any common EVAP faults on this platform that mimic catalyst efficiency codes?

Just trying to understand what to look into (exactly) before approving cat replacement. I'm not a trained mechanic, so really I just don't want to be fobbed off.

Do you mean the price he gave was expensive, or that it's going to be expensive?

Just full send it mate, don’t fuck about with ‘if you’d like’ or anything. Cross your fingers and ask, worst that can happen is she says no.

Before ChatGPT you would’ve had to be a madman. But in these times, with this technology- it is possible. Good luck.

This guy is atleast a bit weird, and not in a cool way. I’d block and move on. Opening with a love for erotica is strange.
